[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 5111080, member: 2805"] The problem is it didn't hit the biologists radar until 5 to 10 years after the problem started. Turkey biologists have been taught to base population estimates on harvest numbers. That may be fine and dandy when harvest techniques were static for decades. But the past 10 years have produced advances making harvest more effective and skewing harvests earlier in the year. Not to mention the number of hunters and hunter effort has dramatically increased in the past decade. [/QUOTE]
